News: Workday

Coming Monday, January 5, the naming convention used for two report suites and their corresponding dashboards and report groups will be changed to allow for more visibility when searching for the reports using the Workday search bar. See the full NewsLink post for details about this significant change.

A new "Approval Times - Software Request Details" report is available to review the approval times for each approval step in the request workflow for software preapproval requests. See the full NewsLink post for details about the new report.

A new "Spend Category" prompt has been added to the "Business Process Approval Times - Requisition Details" report. This new prompt has been added to allow users to see approval trends for requisitions with specific spend categories.

We’ve added a new “Only Return Trackable Values” checkbox to the “Spend Categories – FDM Values” report. When selected, the report will display only trackable spend categories—those that route to Asset Management for review. This enhancement makes it easier for departments to quickly identify trackable spend categories and supports Finance during requisition reviews.
